44-year-old Tonya Bargman was strangled almost a year ago as she left a bathroom at the Willow Creek rest stop on I-39 near Paw Paw. Doddy was arrested three days later near Beloit.

This is Doddy's second guilty plea in less than a week. Last week he admitted to killing Tanya Bargman at a rest stop in Lee County. According to Illinois law a second murder conviction carries a life sentence. Although Doddy hasn't been sentenced yet, Monday’s admission means he will likely spend the rest of his life in jail.

"We are concerned and focused on making sure justice is served and at this point in time we'd like to see that for the victims and the victims’ families and that is the important goal that each of us have for each of these cases as we've been working together as co-prosecutors," Winnebago Co. State’s Attorney Joe Bruscato, said.

This was a unique case as Winnebago and Lee County prosecutors worked together on these cases sharing information and evidence to help bring the case to a close.

Doddy will be sentenced in Winnebago County for Hansmeier’s murder on June 15. He also faces a life sentence for Bargman's death. That sentencing is June 1.

Doddy entered the plea today at the Lee County courthouse in Dixon. He now faces up to life in prison under the terms of the plea agreement. This comes after Doddy says he strangled and drowned Bargman in the Paw-Paw rest stop bathroom. Winnebago County State’s Attorney Joe Bruscato also attended the Lee County hearing along with Lee County State’s Attorney Anna Sacco-Miller.

Doddy will face a judge in both Lee and Winnebago Counties.

Doddy’s sentencing is scheduled for June 1, but says he doesn’t want to be present for it. That decision is ultimately up to the court. Both state’s attorney’s want him to be there because they say it’s very important that a person receives his or her rights whether they want them or not.

UPDATE: A more than 20-year-old drowning case that was reopened by police remains classified as undetermined.

Police were investigating whether double murder suspect, Terence Doddy, was involved in the 1993 drowning death of 15-year-old Stephanie Johnston.

Detectives say they simply did a search in their records of Doddy’s name and it came up in a police report from Stephanie Johnston’s drowning. Doddy was 15 years old back then and was interviewed by deputies about his girlfriend’s disappearance.

Johnston’s body was found in the Rock River near Old River Road just north of Latham on December 31st 1993 after having been missing for more than two months. Sheriff Dick Meyers says there were no signs of trauma to Johnston’s body – no gunshot wounds, stab wounds, or signs that she was beaten. The official cause of death was ruled drowning. The official manner of death was undetermined.

Police say after reviewing physical evidence from the case and conducting additional interviews with family and friends, no new information was developed indicating Terence Doddy was involved in Johnston's death.

Doddy is accused of murdering two people, one in Rockford the other at a rest stop in Paw Paw.

According to Lee County State's Attorney Anna Sacco-Miller, he was appointed a public defender in the arraignment. He is being held without bond. He faces 16 counts, 12 of those for first-degree murder in the death of 44-year-old Tonya Bargman of Monticello. She was found dead July 1 at a Paw Paw rest stop off I-39.

Doddy will next be in Lee County Court August 4 at 9 a.m.

The suspect is also facing first-degree murder charges in the death of his former best friend Todd Hansmeier June 30. Hansmeier was found dead inside a Rockford call center.

Doddy is expected back in Winnebago County court this afternoon at 1:30 p.m.

UPDATE: STATELINE (WIFR) – The man accused of murdering his best friend has now officially been charged with killing an innocent woman.

Police believe Terence Doddy strangled Tonya Bargman at a Lee County rest stop before leading officers on a high speed chase days later.

Terence Doddy is now charged with two murders Lee County State’s Attorney Anna Sacco-Miller is joining Winnebago County State’s Attorney Joe Bruscato in announcing 12 counts of first degree murder charges for the 36-year-old, claiming he killed Tonya Bargman at a rest stop near Paw Paw.

“It was an agreement that we made that I would wait until he’s back in the state of Illinois until we could actually sit down and talk about the coordinated prosecution before we actually file charges.”Sacco-Miller says investigators believe Bargman was strangled. They also say she had water in her lungs, although it’s not clear if she drowned.

“Really there’s not a lot of detail that I can release at this point, the final cause of death has not been released yet.”

Also new today, Sacco-Miller and Bruscato announced their offices will work together on both cases. The state’s attorneys and the respective authorities, law enforcement agencies are included in this process, work collaboratively to get the desired outcome. This is one case where I think it’s necessary that we work this closely together.”

These latest developments come nearly a week after Doddy was first charged with the murder of his former best friend Todd Hansmeier. According to court records, investigators believe the killing was premeditated.

The reason there are so many first degree murder counts in both cases is because prosecutors are covering all possible theories leading up to the alleged crimes. Doddy will be in court tomorrow, in Lee County early in the morning, then in Winnebago County in the early afternoon.

Doddy is facing 15 total counts in Winnebago Count, eleven for first degree murder. He’s facing 16 counts in Lee County, again 12 for first degree murder.

If you remember, the day after police allege Doddy killed his former best friend Todd Hansmeier in Rockford, police say Doddy allegedly killed Bargman who was at a rest stop along I-39 near Paw Paw.

Police say after her death, Doddy stole Bargman’s car, the same one used to elude police in a high speed chase that ended with a violent crash into a tree in the Town of Beloit.

Doddy is facing 11 counts of first degree murder in the Hansmeier case in Winnebago County and now facing 16 counts out of Lee County, 12 of which are for the first degree murder of 44-year-old Tonya Bargman. Winnebago County & Lee County prosecutors say they will work together to prosecute Doddy in both counties.

Police are now investigating whether Doddy is linked to 15-year-old Stephanie Johnston’s drowning in 1993, back when the high school sophomore was dating the now double murder suspect.

Detectives say they simply did a search in their records of Doddy’s name and it came up in a police report from Stephanie Johnston’s drowning. Doddy was 15 years old back then and was interviewed by deputies about his girlfriend’s disappearance.

Johnston’s body was found in the Rock River near Old River Road just north of Latham on December 31st 1993 after having been missing for more than two months. Sheriff Dick Meyers says there were no signs of trauma to Johnston’s body – no gunshot wounds, stab wounds, or signs that she was beaten. The official cause of death was ruled drowning. It’s a case Sheriff Meyers says he never forgot. “The people living at this address on Old River Road spotted the body in the river and it was frozen, it was wintertime and the body was actually frozen. We had to get chainsaws and cut a block of ice out and get a wrecker to lift the ice out to make a recovery of the body,” Sheriff Meyers says.

There were never any indications of foul play surrounding Johnston’s death but Sheriff Meyers says now that Doddy is accused of two murders, it could change things.

We reached out to Johnston’s mother today who said she is just very overwhelmed by everything right now.

Doddy is accused of murdering two people, one in Rockford the other at a rest stop in Paw Paw. He’s currently being held in the Rock County Jail waiting to be extradited to Rockford.

Doddy’s face appears to be severely bruised as he was wheeled in front of the camera in a wheel chair for his first court hearing in Rock County. The court commissioner set Doddy’s cash at $210,000 for warrants in Illinois for homicide and domestic battery. In Rock County, Doddy faces charges for driving his car while on cocaine. We’re told by Rock County Deputy District Attorney that Doddy could be charged with more in Wisconsin but won’t at this point considering what’s waiting for him in Illinois.

It could be as long as three months before Doddy can be extradited to Illinois, if he doesn't waive his rights. If Doddy fights extradition, then Illinois would have to go the route of a governor’s warrant where Illinois governor Pat Quinn would issue a warrant and ask Wisconsin governor Scott Walker to send Doddy to Illinois.

Doddy’s first extradition hearing will be on July 25th. We will continue to update you on this case as we learn more.

An off duty Winnebago County Sheriff’s detective spotted Doddy driving the stolen Nissan north on North Main Street near Roscoe Road around 7pm. There was another sighting on Old River Road and Gleasman near Atwood Golf Course.

Nearly 3 dozen officers from the county, the State Police and other departments canvassed the area for around five hours, but there was no sign of Doddy or the Nissan. Illinois State Police released a picture of Doddy leaving a Rockford area store with camping gear Monday night. This was sometime between the two murders he allegedly committed. At this point there is no other report of a stolen car linked to Doddy so authorities believe he is still using the gray Nissan with the BARGMN2 plates. If you see him or the car, please call 9-1-1 and do not take any other action.

UPDATE: Several police departments and dozens of officers are searching parts just west of Roscoe after someone claimed to have spotted the double murder suspect Terance Doddy driving one of the victim's cars.

It's a case we've been following from the start we just spoke with police who tell us someone spotted Doddy driving from Machesney Park toward Roscoe just before 9:00 pm Thursday night.

Sources within the Winnebago County Sheriff's Department say Doddy was allegedly spotted driving north bound where we are on Old River Road near Gleasman. There may have been another spotting on Route 2 near Wagon Wheel Road in Rockton.

Police are cautioning anyone staying on camping grounds, staying outdoors. They say that's because Doddy may have a blue dome style tent and may use it to hide.

Police are actively combing the area. We hear there may be as many as 30 police units searching for Doddy. Police are asking us to call 911 immediately if we see Doddy or his car but we're told not to approach him.

UPDATE: STATELINE (WIFR) – The nation-wide search for the man police believe killed two people is now back in Rockford.

Police have released new photos including what police believe is Terence Doddy shopping at a local store the same day he’s suspected of beating his friend to death inside a local call center, before allegedly killing an innocent woman at a Lee County rest stop.

Detectives think Doddy is traveling with a blue dome-style tent and are warning us to be extra careful outdoors and at camp grounds.

Rock Cut’s camping grounds are all booked up for this 4th of July weekend which may be troubling for some now that state police tell us double murder suspect Terence Doddy has the equipment to hide out at camping grounds.

Images released today show more accurately the gray 2013 Nissan Altima police believe Doddy stole after allegedly killing Tonya Bargman at a rest stop in Paw Paw on Tuesday. Police are searching for that vehicle with license plate number BARGMN2. This next photo is of a blue dome style camping tent Doddy may have with him. The photo was taken on Monday and shows Doddy at a Rockford area store leaving with items.

Police are cautioning anyone at campgrounds, rest stops, or anywhere else outdoors to keep an eye out and take precaution as investigators are considering Doddy dangerous.

Investigators are asking anyone with information to call the police.

We’re also learning more about one of the victims Doddy is suspected of killing and why some say Todd Hansmeier and Doddy were best friends. Josh Heckelmiller says Todd Hansmeier always wanted to have a good time. Heckelmiller lived with Todd for two years and says Todd was always there when anyone needed him, including Terence Doddy.

“I always though of Terry as Todd’s best friend.”

That’s why Heckelmiller says it’s hard to imagine Todd is gone and that Doddy is wanted for his murder

“Shocking. I mean I never would’ve thought Terry would be capable of something like this. He was always polite, nice…it’s unbelievable.”

Investigators say Doddy could be connected to the murder of 44-year-old Tonya Bargman at a Lee County rest stop.

“Todd was trying to help him out and this is why it’s so difficult to understand how this could’ve occurred.”

Jim Novak was Todd’s boss at Apple Insurance in Roscoe. He says everyone loved Todd and his vibrant spirit.

“He was like the son I never had.”

Novak says he’s worried because Doddy is still out there.

“It’s a very eerie feeling because not that he would come to our office but it’s just for all the citizens of Rockford and Winnebago County that they should be on alert,” Novak says.

Memorial services for Todd Hansmeier will be held next week.

UPDATE: STATELINE (WIFR) -- Illinois State Police (ISP) investigators are working with the Rockford Police Department, U.S. Marshals and law enforcement nationwide to locate 36-year-old Terence Doddy of Rockford, who is a suspect in two murders in the last four days.

“It’s awful,” says Doddy’s former boss, Steve Korn. “To have a break like this and go on a rampage, it’s beyond comprehension to me. You knew this man for six years and he worked for us and you wish somehow you could go back in time and find some clue to his personality that would’ve said...or get him help.”

Investigators say Terence could be connected to a second murder at Willow Creek rest stop in Lee County, where officers say 44-year-old Tonya Bargman was attacked by a man while leaving the restroom.

Terence was seen leaving the area in her car, a gray 2013 Nissan Altima.

“It’s so needless, you could take what you want. Apparently he wanted a new set of car keys, a new ride and he could’ve got that very easily from somebody without having to take their life. It just shows no conscious.”

Terence has not yet been charged in the second murder. He is wanted on an aggravated domestic battery warrant as well as murder charges for the death of Todd Hansmeier.
